Really? So I can just swan over to the MI5 building and buy their
internal
publications? Perhaps the one listing the positions of the
surviving
nuclear bunkers and the route the PM will be taking?


Those *printed* works have never been *published*.

For example, the public railway timetable is published but the
working timetable is an internal printed document and is marked "NOT
for PUBLICATION"

Printed and published are not the same.
